Fundamentals of Fluid Kinematics

Introductory Course

Ratings: 0.00 / 5.00




Description

Fluid Kinematics is the study of fluid motion without considering the forces. This course has been divided into the following 5 sections:

  • Introduction

  • Paths in fluid motion

  • Concept of the continuity equation

  • Concept of fluid acceleration

  • Mathematical formulations in Fluid Kinematics

In the first section, students will learn about types of approach in Fluid Kinematics and types of fluid flow. In the second section, students will learn about streamlines, pathlines, streakline,s, and timelines. In the third section, students will study about continuity equation for one-dimensional steady flow and general continuity equation. In the fourth section, students will learn about fluid acceleration in a steady flow, uniform flow, and in both steady uniform flow. In the fifth section, students will focus on the topics like angular deformation and rotation, vorticity, and circulation.

This course is surely not for the people who think they possess enough knowledge in this domain. In addition, this course is also not for people who are looking for a fluent English accent. The main advice is to go through the samples video first and if you are comfortable with it then enroll in to the course. The students enrolling to this course should have knowledge of the basics of calculus and basics of fluid properties.  The students are advised to take proper notes while going through this course lectures.  In case of any doubts, the students can ask the questions and each and every attempt will be made to answer their questions. The slides for this course will be available on Research gate.

Hope you will enjoy this course and gain proper knowledge regarding the relevant topics.

Happy Learning!
